What guests loved the most
“Cons: Insufficient parking, overpriced for the value, not enough power outlets in the room for electronics, outwardly looks like a quaint, charming bed-and-breakfast -- in reality, just old and shabby with doors that stick, furniture that creak, and garish lighting. Pros: located close to downtown Santa Barbara although not necessarily within walking distance, 24x7 coffee/tea/hot chocolate service in the lobby albeit none in-room, wait staff courteous and very responsive, complimentary (but mediocre) breakfast although my mother seemed to really enjoy the oatmeal.”
“The facilities and grounds were charming and unique. The area was very quiet and close to downtown. The breakfast was really good, not the typical you often get in most hotels. The staff was helpful and friendly.”
“The property is very charming. The lobby breakfast is is lovely. The decor is cozy but elegant. The staff is always available & helpful. You are 2 blocks from the main shopping/restaurant strip, and close to the beach.”
“Room was amazing , shower a dream ... They upgraded us and gave us a magical cottage , Thank you Upham Hotel 🙌”
“This is a lovely older, historic hotel with beautiful grounds. The staff was pleasant and helpful. They serve a nice buffet breakfast (included with the booking) and the restaurant is open for lunch and dinner. The Upham is just on the edge of downtown, so we could, and did, walk everywhere!”
“Everything was perfect. Breakfast had a nice variety with several newspapers to read. Wine and cheese was very enjoyable especially sitting outside in the beautiful gardens!only”
“Beautiful old (1872) country house hotel In town - it reminded me of a Georgian plantation with lovely gardens to sit in.”
“Fairly large, comfortable room. Staff are friendly and helpful. Location is perfect for us. Near family, friends, downtown. Close enough for us to walk to the beach (but we’re distance runners/hikers).”
“Room well appointed & comfortable. Convenient stroll to shopping areas.”
“The location and ambiance were excellent. We enjoyed a glass of wine every evening outside at one of the cute tables or gazebo set around the property”
